What is 3D printing?• 3D printing is a process

of making three dimensional solid objects from a digital file.

• These objects can be of almost any shape, and are produced from a 3D model or other electronic data source

How does 3D printing work?

• An object is created by laying down successive layers of material until the entire object is created.

• Each of these layers can be seen as a thinly sliced horizontal cross-section of the eventual object.

provision"

• 3D printing being applied to materials ranging from chocolate to cells or concrete


Social value• The first biological 3D-printer opens new

perspectives in the field of recovery and implantation of organs and tissues.

• Printing Industry of human organs is in its infancy, but scientists already have successful examples of the creation of human organs "from scratch".


3D printing increases the energy efficiency

• 3D printing technology will enable manufacturers to easily produce goods to order, helping save money and minimize waste.

• 3D printing has potential for cost-effective, efficient and environmentally-friendly manufacturing.

• Today, the 3D printing technology has spurred remarkable efforts in many manufacturing sectors; from building intricate aircraft and race car components.


Is 3D Printing Eco-Friendly?

• Can fabricate small batches of custom parts at the time of need (reducing inventory maintenance) near the point of purchase or consumption (reducing transportation pollution).

• Has the ability to help designers develop parts and products for optimal performance, which could include reduced weight or longer product lives;

• Makes more efficient use of raw materials: The 3D printing process places raw material only where it's needed (an ability referred to as "net shape manufacturing");


provision"

3-D Printed Electric Car• Urbee 2 is the first car made of printed the 3D-

printer parts.• Three-wheeled machine is cheaper and consumes

less fuel than any other car on the market, but the 23-hp engine (with batteries) allows it to develop incredible speed.


provision"

Prospects• With effects on energy

use, waste reduction, customization, product availability, medicine, art, construction and sciences, 3D printing will change the manufacturing world as we know it.
